Blueberry Orange Buttermilk Breakfast Cake

Seriously, though. We usually have breakfast for dinner once a week (a certain picky someone refuses to eat almost everything I make for dinner, but loves any and all breakfast foods, so I like to know there’s a minimum of 1 dinner per week he will actually eat), and I think breakfast-for-dinner night is the dinner highlight of everyone’s week. Not just the picky eater’s favorite . . . everyone’s favorite.

Although Forrest was a bit nervous about the blueberries (and picked them all out of his slice), we loved this Blueberry Orange Buttermilk Breakfast Cake. Tender and moist, studded with juicy blueberries and filled with fragrant and delicious orange flavor . . . so, so tasty. And calling it a ‘breakfast’ cake instead of just a cake means it is suitable for consumption during any meal of the day. CAKE for breakfast? Probably not. BREAKFAST CAKE for breakfast (or brinner)? Bring it on.

In a medium bowl, gently toss the blueberries with 1/4 cup flour to coat.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add slowly to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk and orange juice. Fold in blueberries. Spread batter in prepared pan (batter will be thick!), sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar, and bake in preheated oven 40-50 minutes or until golden brown and baked through in center.

i've done this for a long time, in fact i often add a few extra chains because too many is better than too few and my count cld be off. the only thing is i tighten the stitch before the first on i worked into, as i need a new knot after removing the old one.

I seriously feel so ridiculous for not figuring this out sooner!! Thank you so much for the great tutorial. I've been crocheting for 7 years now and have ripped out SO MUCH WORK!! I will totally be doing this instead!!! Thanks for the tutorial, it was NOT a waste of time!
